What Clients Say

Thankful to have found a good spot for Chinese food around here. Nice atmosphere. Friendly workers. I forgot to take a photo of our food. We got a combination with king pao beef and I think sweet and sour chicken. It was good.

This place is just beautiful with an amazing ambiance and the food was soo good. The wonton soup was good but overall mediocre. However, everything else I had was top notch. Great egg rolls, and the Mongolian Beef… wow! Some of the best I’ve had! I will definitely be back. In a world where it seems like most Chinese restaurants have gone the way of the buffet, it’s so refreshing to find an amazing sitdown Chinese place like this!

Chinese restaurant in Ozark with dine-in and take out. I have been several times and have always been more than satisfied with the food quality. There are few vegetarian options on the menu, but I was able to order the tofu and vegetables with the sauce of my choosing. The decoration and ambiance of the restaurant is nice, and our waitress was kind and attentive. I definitely recommend it, my go-to for Chinese food and one of my favorite restaurants in the area.

Love this restaurant. Everything is always served hot and fresh made. Their crab rangoons are savory and soooo good!! I almost always order their chicken with garlic sauce but branched out and got their house beef today. Both are delicious! They have the restaurant decorated really nice and it gives each table a quiet private feel. Also - not to be missed by my kids - there is a mini store at the front that they always manage to find something in.

If you haven't been here before, I highly recommend it! It has an amazing atmosphere and great staff. The service was incredible and the food was so flavorful and filling. We only had two people but this was the first time at any dining place where we got our food super quickly! The cashew chicken was super tender but so crispy! I highly recommend the crab ragoon as well. My fiance loved his Szhechuian pork. Great portion sizes as well.
